New Tab Scrollbar

Reported by yan1994d...@gmail.com, Aug 26 
UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/68.0.3440.106 Safari/537.36

Example URL:
chrome://newtab

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Select default search engine other than Google (DuckDuckGo in my case)
2. Go to new tab page
3. See a vertical scrollbar and blank (black) space under the page

What is the expected behavior?
The content fits the window.

What went wrong?
The content does not fit the window.

Does it occur on multiple sites: No

Is it a problem with a plugin? No 

Did this work before? N/A 

Does this work in other browsers? Yes

Chrome version: 68.0.3440.106  Channel: stable
OS Version: Arch Linux
Flash Version: 

I found out that this is due to the #ntp-contents element inheriting height 100%. Height fit-contents resolves the problem.

The problem is that #ntp-contents is too tall, which is the case on your screenshot. The fact that excessive space is not black, but white in your case, is, I think, due to a different theme.

Fixed in M69.

BTW: the black areas on the NTP are caused by the theme images in
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/nordic-forest/amekpplpfocpmaimnmgfjoibodpjedie?hl=en being lower resolution than the screen.
